Yes, Yes Yes. If you have a slow dance moment at a wedding reception, you could always choose to play “Can’t Help Falling In Love” or “At Last” and everyone would pack the dance floor. Later in the evening you could play “Tennessee Whiskey” or Perfect“ and everyone will be happy.

Are couples getting tired of hearing these songs at weddings? Are wedding pros exhausted from hearing the timeless classics over and over?

I have analyzed trending slow songs over the year and created the list below to get your creative juices flowing. I want to give you the choice of knowing the songs that will live on forever and also hidden gems based on the type of music guests are dancing to or enjoying earlier in the party.
